Introducing materials with differential microwave energy absorption capabilities into a polymer matrix, combined with microwave heating foaming after supercritical CO<sub>2</sub> saturation at 40 ℃, 8 MPa for 8 h and slow depressurization, provides an effective route to achieve polymer foams with bimodal cells. This work utilized incompatible TPU and PVDF as the matrix. A phase separated structure was formed within the TPU/PVDF composite system due to the inherent immiscibility of the two polymers, leveraging the inherent difference in microwave energy absorption between the two polymers to create a TPU/PVDF foam with a bimodal cell structure. The extent of phase separation in the TPU/PVDF composite was investigated using SEM and EDS. Subsequently, the influence of PVDF content on the melting and crystallization behavior, rheological properties, and uniaxial tensile behavior of the TPU/PVDF composites was examined. By controlling microwave radiation power and time, various bimodal cell structures were successfully fabricated within the TPU/PVDF composites. Finally, COMSOL Multiphysics simulations were employed to model the microwave heating effects in both TPU and TPU/PVDF.

Therefore, we utilized pH switching induced by the introduction of carbon dioxide to adjust the pH in a manner harmless to the human body. This method made it possible to reduce the use of organic solvents harmful to the human body. Using this strategy, a chitosan gel loaded with indomethacin was obtained. Under the preparation conditions of this study, approximately 5.0 mg/mL of indomethacin was dispersed by forming a complex with chitosan. This represents approximately 2000 times greater dispersion compared to its original saturation solubility in water. Furthermore, changing the preparation temperature altered the dispersibility of the loaded drug, and amide bonds were formed between chitosan and indomethacin at higher temperatures, resulting in an uneven gel. As amide bonds have been shown to inhibit drug release, gel formation at an appropriate preparation temperature is necessary to minimize amide bond formation.

This study compares the resistance of limestone calcined clay cements (LC<sup>3</sup>) and traditional SCM-based (silica fume and metakaolin) cement pastes exposed to supercritical CO<sub>2</sub> for 7 days. The extent of carbonation and the associated phase transformations resulting from carbonation reactions were assessed using TGA, XRD, FTIR, and SEM-EDX analyses. Additionally, bulk density and compressive strength tests were conducted to evaluate the mechanical properties. The results demonstrated that the LC<sup>3</sup> composition exhibited superior resistance to carbonation compared to the mixtures incorporating silica fume and metakaolin at an equivalent level of cement replacement. Higher carbonation penetration in traditional SCM-based systems is evidenced by up to 52 % higher carbonate contents in the middle part of the samples. This enhanced carbonation is attributed to the limited portlandite buffering capacity. In the middle part of the sample, LC3–70 contained up to 55 % more portlandite, indicating both reduced carbonation and lower pozzolanic reactivity of the calcined clay and limestone compared to SF/MK mixtures. Higher portlandite content in LC<sup>3</sup> favoured more extensive carbonation-induced densification of the pore structure, effectively impeding CO<sub>2</sub> ingress. In addition, this process contributed to an increase in compressive strength, which reached 53 MPa, approximately 34 % higher than that of the corresponding composition cured under standard water-hydration conditions. For highly carbonated SF/MK samples, compressive strength increased by 77 % reaching up to 93 MPa.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":17078,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Supercritical Fluids","volume":"229 ","pages":"Article 106832"},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145441993","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
